The WCCG has developed a new service model which will play a central role in providing systematic and proactive support to people and their carers/family who are living in the community with dementia through personalised case management. This new service will work in close collaboration with health and social care and the voluntary sector and be a single point of access linking all dementia support in the borough. The Dementia Support Service will support people diagnosed with dementia, and also their carers, families and those close to them to seek help, advice and support at any stage of the illness and will provide a single identifiable point of contact. Based on the Memory Assessment Service performance data, from 2016 to 2018, an average of 419 people per year have been diagnosed with dementia (based on organic primary diagnosis only)'. More information about number of people diagnosed with dementia in Wandsworth can be found in the Needs Assessment below. [datawand.info](https://www.datawand.info/wpcontent/uploads/2019/07/LBW_Dementia_Health_Needs_Assessment_2019.pdf) The key aims and objectives of the service are detailed within the draft service specification which is attached. The intended key service outcomes are as follows: • People with dementia and their carers/families can easily access peer support, education and a range of social and leisure activities that improve well-being; • People diagnosed with dementia and their carers are provided with appropriate advice and support at the appropriate time; • People with dementia can remain in their own homes and are independent for longer; • Informal carers of people with dementia receive services that support their own health and well-being which will enable them to continue the caring process for longer; • Interactive approaches are taken so that residents with dementia living alone and those facing travel difficulties are supported to get access to services on time; • The service works in partnership with other organisations/services (e.g. Memory Assessment Service, Carers Support Service, social services, voluntary sector organisations, GP Practices, Primary Care Networks, Make Every Contact Count and Wandsworth Social Prescribing Service etc.) to meet the needs and set outcomes for service users and their carers in a complementary manner; • Increased numbers of dementia champions and dementia friends. The current assumptions are that the annual contract value will be circa £80,000, and that the WCCG is likely to establish a contract for an initial 3 years (worth £240,000), with an option to extend this for a further 2 year, i.e. a maximum of 5 years (worth up to £400,000 in total). The WCCG would like for the new service to commence from 1 April 2020. Additional information: If your organisation has an interest in providing this service in Wandsworth, please respond by no later than 12pm on Monday 28 October 2019 to Anca Costinas ( ) & Phillip Gouldbourn ([phil\_gouldbourn@nhs.net](mailto:phil_gouldbourn@nhs.net)). Responses will assist the WCCG to understand the level of interest and inform whether or not a competitive process will be appropriate, hence your confirmation of interest is important.
